    I have a 1992 HDJ81 RHD with cloth seats, and I'm interested in these if you've managed to acquire any measurements to fit these. Thanks!

    JDM HDJ81 Owners in USA...any regrets about your purchase?

    I was mostly casing the general market (such as I could find) in Jan-Mar of this year, so I couldn’t say which I had my eye on at the time. That’s good info for the future though, thanks!

    JDM HDJ81 Owners in USA...any regrets about your purchase?

    Yeah I drove mine through NYC city streets on the Upper West Side with no issues, the only time I felt nervous about driving was passing semi truck traffic on the ALCAN, where I had to have my front passenger spot for me if the way was clear.

    They mostly don’t seem to exist right now anywhere that isn’t BaT, but the non auction prices this past spring was around 45k for what I wanted.

    A 1HD-FT with the 5-speed manual is right now my dream vehicle, just waiting for the prices to get a little more manageable on the 95-97's.

    JDM HDJ81 Owners in USA...any regrets about your purchase?

    Passive-aggressively posting an article extract about generic RHD crash statistics isn't really contributing to discussion, though, is it? Those concerns might have been things you could have brought up, and then posted the link to the article helpfully. Instead, you chose to be mr cool guy...

    No regrets on my '92 HDJ81 w/ auto. Runs like a champ, gets decent MPG, and the RHD doesn't really feel out of place anymore. The ONLY time I've ever had issues was going through an automated parking gate, where you either have to pull a ticket out or put a PIN in. That is pretty much a pain in...

    Wanted Series 80 non-airbag steering wheel, grey preferred

    The one there in the lower picture, is that leather black pre-airbag 80-series? I'm in the market for a replacement for my JDM HDJ81. Thanks!

    '95 HDJ81 Cruise Control Question

    Installed, and the 'Cruise' light didn't flash when I turned the car on and actuated the system so here's hoping it works!

    '95 HDJ81 Cruise Control Question

    Is this a simple part swap, or is there a write-up somewhere I can look at to see what's involved? I don't *mind* my max 112km speed on my JDM cruiser but I'd like to maybe have the choice to get all the way up to *shock* 120km/h. Thanks!
